The three share a name and a mid-mounted spring layout, not a size. The Falcon is the small one; Begode calls it "The Smallest Suspension EUC." The Falcon Pro steps up to a 15-inch wheel and twice the battery. The Falcon Plus, announced September 27, 2026, is an 82 lb high-voltage wheel, and Begode's announcement says it "does not replace Falcon Pro": both stay in the line.

What Begode's pages leave out, and where our figures come from

The current Falcon page lists voltage, capacity, cell options, a 1,500 W rated motor, the no-load speed, two riding modes (Off-Road and Race), the suspension type, a large three-digit display, Velcro leg pads, hollow anti-slip pedals, an adjustable headlight and front and rear carry handles. It gives no weight, tire size, suspension travel, load limit, range, charger or water rating. The Falcon Pro page adds an 80 mm travel figure, a 7 A charger and an IP67-rated design, but no weight, tire size, range or load limit.

For the Falcon Pro's weight we use Begode's own page as the Internet Archive saved it on June 18, 2026, whose basic specifications read "15 Inches | 30KG"; the current page dropped the line. For the Falcon we use eWheels' listing as archived on November 2, 2025: 55 lb, a 290 lb maximum load, 35 to 40 miles of range, about 29 mph cruising speed, a 5 A charger and 60 mm of travel. Those are a dealer's figures, and the page is loose in places. Its spec list calls the tire 15 x 3.5 inches while its description says 14 x 3.5, and it says the 5 A charger reaches 80% "in under an hour" in one line and "1.5hr to 80%" in another. The math lands near the second figure (see the charging table below).

Begode also calls the Falcon's battery a "2-Parallel / 2-Series Power Architecture," which does not describe a 100V pack. eWheels' account does: 48 cells, 24 in series and two in parallel (24S2P), and 24 cells at 4.2 V each is the 100.8V full charge the Pro page states for its own pack.

Begode Falcon and Falcon Pro price and stock

Begode's store, November 7, 2026 (US warehouse unless noted)

Version	Price	Regular price shown	US availability
Falcon, 900 Wh, Samsung 50GB	$980	$1,399	Sold out, street and off-road (the EU street version was in stock)
Falcon, 900 Wh, Samsung 50S	$1,399	$1,399	Sold out
Falcon Pro, 1,800 Wh, Samsung 50S	$1,980	$2,500 to $2,900	In stock (street tire, as shown)
Falcon Pro, 1,800 Wh, Samsung 50GB	$1,800	$2,500 to $2,900	In stock or pre-order by configuration
Falcon Pro, 1,600 Wh, DMEGC 45E	$1,400	$2,500 to $2,900	Pre-order only; November 2026 warehouse estimate
Falcon Plus, 2,400 Wh	$1,980	$2,580	Pre-order; first batch about early December 2026

The Falcon Pro page says Samsung versions "may be available from current regional warehouse inventory or as pre-order depending on the exact selected configuration," so check the badge for your exact battery, tire and region before paying. Begode's November estimates are, in its words, warehouse timing and "not a guaranteed customer delivery date." The Falcon's $980 price is "limited promotional inventory," available while it lasts, and the delivery region you pick must match your shipping address: Begode does not ship across regions, so a US buyer cannot order the EU stock.

The US dealer route has closed for now. eWheels sold the Falcon 50S at $1,599 with a street tire and $1,699 with a knobby tire in November 2025, with a set of power pads included; its Falcon pages returned a 404 error on November 7, 2026. Alien Rides and Next Gen Mobility listed no Falcon wheel that day, and a search of Amazon US found no Falcon listing. That leaves Begode's own store as the only new source we found, so the Falcon links on this page go to Begode and earn us nothing.

Falcon speed: what 67 km/h and 105 km/h mean

Begode's Falcon page calls 67 km/h (42 mph) a "manufacturer-stated no-load speed" and adds that it "is not a guaranteed or recommended real-world riding speed." No-load means the wheel spinning with nobody on it. The Falcon Pro's "up to 105 km/h" (65 mph) is a Race Mode maximum carrying the same warning. Neither page gives the tiltback or alarm speed, the point where the wheel starts pushing the pedals back to slow you, which is the speed figure that matters on the road. The nearest thing on record is eWheels' description of the Falcon: about 29 mph cruising and a 31 mph (50 km/h) maximum, a dealer's figures.

The gap between the speed you ride and what the motor can still deliver is your margin for a hill, a headwind, a heavier load or a low battery. A no-load number tells you very little about that margin, and a wheel asked for more than it can give can throw its rider. Until you know where your Falcon's alarm and tiltback are set, ride well below the dealer's 29 mph. Our tiltback and cutouts guide explains how wheels warn you first.

Range and charging

Begode publishes no range figure for any Falcon. eWheels claimed 35 to 40 miles for the Falcon. The table applies the method of our range calculator (85% of the pack treated as usable, at 20, 28 and 40 Wh per mile for gentle, mixed and hard riding) and of our charging time calculator (amp-hours from nominal voltage at 3.6 V per cell, divided by the charger's output current).

Estimated range and charging time from each wheel's battery and included charger

Wheel	Battery	Gentle (20 Wh/mile)	Mixed (28 Wh/mile)	Hard (40 Wh/mile)	Empty to full on the included charger
Falcon	900 Wh	38 miles	27 miles	19 miles	About 2.1 hours (5 A); 1.7 hours to 80%
Falcon Pro (DMEGC)	1,600 Wh	68 miles	49 miles	34 miles	About 2.6 hours (7 A)
Falcon Pro (Samsung)	1,800 Wh	77 miles	55 miles	38 miles	About 3 hours (7 A)
Falcon Plus	2,400 Wh	102 miles	73 miles	51 miles	About 4.2 hours (5 A)

eWheels' 35 to 40 miles for the Falcon sits at the gentle end of that table, so plan on about 27 miles for mixed riding and less in cold weather. Charging is where the Falcon line stands out: the 5 A and 7 A chargers in the box fill the Falcon and Falcon Pro in two to three hours, where InMotion's V11Y needs 6.6 to 8 hours on one 2.5 A charger. Begode says the Falcon Pro supports up to 20 A, but calls that "the maximum supported charging capability," not "the recommended routine daily charging rate," and recommends the standard charger for routine use to protect battery life. A 20 A charger is sold separately. eWheels advised keeping the Falcon at or below 8 A because of the charge port, wiring and BMS.

Suspension, tire and weight

Falcon

The Falcon's suspension is a mid-mounted spring with adjustable hydraulic damping, by Begode's account. eWheels gave 60 mm of travel and said the wheel ships with orange 4 mm springs designed for riders of 120 to 200 lb, with stiffer 4.5 mm springs for heavier riders. eWheels sold the orange spring set separately ($47 on November 7, 2026), and Begode sells a complete Falcon suspension assembly at $180 a piece.

eWheels described a 14-inch wheel with a wide tubeless tire, the same size class as the A2's, and the replacement tires dealers sell for it are 14 x 3 and 14 x 3.5 inch (eWheels) and 3.0-10 (Next Gen Mobility). That is the size class of the InMotion V9's 3.00-10 tire. Begode offers a street or an off-road tire at the same price. At 55 lb, eWheels said, the Falcon gets close to 50 lb with the side pads and trolley handle removed.

Falcon Pro

The Pro has 80 mm of travel from quick-detachable, mid-mounted dual-damping springs, height-adjustable spiked pedals, adjustable Velcro pads, USB and USB-C outputs, and a 15-inch wheel with a street or off-road tire. Begode does not give the tire size. At 30 kg (66 lb) it weighs about 11 lb more than eWheels' figure for the Falcon. Begode sells an optional seat with an extended trolley handle for the Pro and the Plus at $99; its listing says a third party makes it.

Safety record and UL 2272

None of the three Falcon pages mentions UL 2272, and TÜV Rheinland's Certipedia database, which holds the UL 2272 certificates it has issued to InMotion, listed no certificate for Begode or for its older Gotway name on November 7, 2026. That matters most in New York City, where Local Law 39 of 2023 requires certification for devices sold, leased or rented in the city. If a certificate matters to you, ask Begode for the number before you buy. The standard tests the battery, its management system and charging, not how a wheel balances or when it cuts out; our UL 2272 guide has the detail.

The CPSC's recall database lists one Begode recall: number 23-055, announced December 1, 2022, for about 500 Begode and Gotway MSP, Nikola+ and RS wheels sold by eWheels from April 2020 to June 2021, after 14 reports of batteries catching fire. No Falcon model was part of it, and the database showed no other Begode recall on November 7, 2026. A GOV.UK search found no UK product safety report on Begode.

The Pro and Plus carry an "IP67-rated protection design," but Begode tells owners not to ride through water, immerse the wheel or ride for long in rain, warns that impacts, repairs and age can weaken the seals, and excludes water damage from the warranty.

Warranty and service

Begode warranty policy, read November 7, 2026 (begode.com orders only)

Period	Parts
12 months	Motherboard or controller, display, motor, battery, charger
6 months	Shock absorbers and suspension shock components, lights
3 months	Wear parts: wiring harnesses, pedals, shells and housings

The policy applies only to products bought directly through begode.com, starts on the carrier's delivery date, and does not transfer to a second-hand owner. Unless Begode agrees in writing, it does not cover shipping, customs, taxes, labor, disassembly or diagnosis, so in practice it supplies parts and you fit them or pay a shop. On a suspension wheel, note that the shocks get six months, not a year. Begode's support center takes after-sales requests only for orders it shipped. Our warranty comparison puts Begode's terms next to the other makers'.

Falcon vs InMotion V9. These are the two smallest suspension wheels we have covered, both in the 14-inch tire class with 60 mm of travel. The V9 is 4 lb lighter, was $181 less than the Falcon's sale price when we checked each, is in stock, sold through InMotion's Amazon store, and has a UL 2272 certificate and a published top speed. The Falcon brings 150 Wh more battery on a higher-voltage pack, hydraulic damping you can adjust, a coil spring instead of an air spring, and, by eWheels' account, a controller rated for 280 A peak. If you can't get a Falcon, or want the certificate, the V9 is the alternative; our V9 review covers it.

Falcon vs NOSFET Aero. At about the same weight the Aero carries 23% more battery on a 126V pack, but it cost roughly twice the Falcon's sale price at dealers in October, and UK regulators rejected an Aero import at the border in October 2025 for missing conformity evidence; our Aero review has the detail.

Falcon Pro vs InMotion V11Y. Both weigh 66 lb. The Pro carries 20% more battery (1,800 against 1,500 Wh) on a 100.8V pack, charges in about 3 hours against 6.6 or more, and uses coil springs where the V11Y uses air. The V11Y cost $501 less than the 1,800 Wh Pro with 50GB cells, is sold by InMotion's Amazon store, and comes with a published top speed and a range figure with test conditions; our V11Y review has the detail. Neither has a UL 2272 certificate we could find.

Buying a used Falcon

• No warranty passes to you. Begode's coverage stays with the original begode.com buyer, and its support center only handles orders it shipped. Ask where the wheel was bought and for the order record.
• Ask which cells it has. Begode sold the Falcon with Samsung 50GB or 50S cells at different prices (50S was eWheels' version), and the seller should be able to show it on the order.
• Ask which springs are fitted and how heavy the last rider was; the stock 4 mm springs suit riders up to about 200 lb, per eWheels.
• Ask which motor it has. Begode's current parts list a "hollow shaft" Falcon motor and a "new" suspension assembly "for hollow shaft 4-hole screw motor," which suggests more than one version has been built; confirm before ordering parts.
• Parts are available for now. eWheels still listed Falcon motors, battery packs, controllers, boards, a display, side panels, springs and a suspension module on November 7, 2026, and Begode listed Falcon motors and suspension assemblies.

Then run the usual checks on battery health, error codes, tire wear and shell damage from our used wheel checklist. Begode's support center publishes error-code references.

Who should buy the Begode Falcon or Falcon Pro, and who should skip them

Buy the Falcon Pro if you have ridden a wheel before, want 1,600 to 1,800 Wh and 80 mm of suspension at 66 lb, value a two-to-three-hour charge, and are comfortable buying direct from Begode with a warranty that supplies parts. The 1,800 Wh version with Samsung 50GB cells at $1,800 is the one we would pick. Begode calls the 50S "high-performance" but publishes no figure for what the extra $180 buys, and the $1,400 DMEGC version gives up 200 Wh and has no ready stock.

Buy the Falcon if you find one at a fair price and want the smallest suspension wheel made, for short trips, carrying, and tight riding. It was sold out at Begode's US warehouse on November 7, 2026.

Skip both if it will be your first wheel (read our learn-to-ride guide and the beginner picks instead), you need a UL 2272 certificate number, you want a published tiltback speed, or you want US dealer support. In those cases the InMotion V9 (small) or V11Y (mid-size) are the in-stock alternatives. For every Begode model, see our Begode lineup.
